Know How You can Make Time for Health & Fitness

Life is busy.

Jobs and schools, loans and pleasures.

Borrowing time has meaning in both gain and sacrifice.

Borrowing time for You

People need the support.

It was a Monday night when I greeted a customer who arrived three minutes before closing.

It’s 9:10 PM, and I’m serving the customer.

Bart suffers from severe anxiety.

For him, panic attacks are triggered by people and noises. I feel empathy knowing the power of the mind.

Can you think of a moment when your heart truly raced?

If its because you’re near a charming fellow, have no worries reader.

But the trouble comes when someone gets over-stimulated by common situations.

I worked beyond the schedule that night because Bart was a person in need. He was not disrespecting me by staying late — he was simply trying to cope.

Bart needed to borrow time from me, on that night.

For nearly twenty minutes, even after the doors were locked I gave him my full attention.

While some may feel a loss in time, I feel better knowing that integrity and character come more in giving than in receiving.

Hopefully everyone can experience the power of both.

THE SECRET TO FITNESS:

Make lots of health meals or…

…know a person who makes health appreciate more than butter on a pancake.

Extra points if they are cuter than butter on a pancake.

Make time for health, give time to others

The same goes for rocking fitness into the schedule.

Start small and own it.

You are the master of your own fitness.

How do Digestive Enzymes promote Health and Fitness?

Enzymes equal life.

These are the workers of the living world. They make movement, growth, thought, emotion, healing, disease, virus, life, sex, and everything else possible.

Lock and key theory of enzymes. Each enzyme can do this at a spectacular rate. For some, millions of times per hour!

Enzymes are workers, acting constantly as catalysts throughout the entire body. Enzymes cause important events to happen — each individual enzyme induces thousands of reactions per hour.

Pause for a second and flex your forearm.

Enzymes made that possible.

How fast he strokes, his enzymes work even faster.

As you can imagine, the quantity and quality of enzymes in your body is directly related to your current state of health and vitality.

Zero enzymes = death.

Supplemental enzymes Save You Energy.

The digestive process uses LOTS of energy so that you can have that energy.

It’s like the Greenpeace canvassers who go door to door asking you for money. Most of the money they raise goes towards their paycheck. Same thing in the body — most of the energy from food goes towards powering the digestive system.

"Hi, will you donate money so I can keep asking people to donate money, a small portion helps whales."

When you use supplemental enzymes, it therefore saves your body a significant amount of energy so that your body can focus on promoting vitality instead of living in a weakened state.

Basically, supplemental enzymes are FREE workers.

Overly Cooked and Processed food creates Disease in America

Processed foods are dangerous.

Future of America: This is why Junk-Food companies invest millions $ into insurance and "health-care" companies.

For example, Soda is highly processed, full of high fructose corn syrup, and completely lacking in enzymes. You feel a burst of energy from the carbohydrates that that your body is able to extract from the Soda, until 20 minutes later you feel down again.

Why?

One reason is because after 20 minutes, the undigested soda has gone through the digestive system too fast and inefficiently to even be utilized.

Why does my stomach bulge after eating this?

Undigested food becomes toxic to the body in multiple ways ways.

  • First, it can feed the harmful bacteria and yeast in your intestines which can create dysbiosis in the gut (unbalanced microbial environment), which is a huge cause of disease and yeast infections.
  • Second, undigested food in the bloodstream induces an immune response by your body. This takes more energy and resources that are not being spent on giving you vitality.
  • Since the energy cannot be readily used by the body, it is converted into triglycerides that flow freely in the bloodstream.
  • Excess triglycerides (fats) will clog veins and arteries, causing circulatory issues and even worse: cardiovascular disease!

Moreover, since processed food contains no actual enzymes, it requires your body to produce significant enzymes from its limited enzyme capacity. The more enzymes you use now, the less you have later. The less enzymes you have later, the quicker you age, and the more susceptible to pain, disease, inflammation, autoimmune disorders, and so much more…

Eat only Raw Foods…in an ideal world.

Apples, oranges, broccoli, and all other fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, and plants contain active enzymes. These enzymes aid in assimilation of the nutrients available.

If you had the time, energy, and ability to prepare raw foods like this...I might just marry you.

But Heat KILLS enzymes. Cooking at or above just 118 degrees Fahrenheit will deactivate and destroy the enzymes. You therefore lose nutrients and enzyme potential.

Cooked food often sucks more life from you than it actually gives you.

Raw foods save your body energy and promote HEALTH by…

  1. Providing you with enzymes to absorb nutrients
  2. Allow you to fully digest the food so that your body does not have to mount an immune response
  3. Beneficial phytochemicals from raw foods promote hormone balance, anti-cancer properties, and cellular rejuvenation.

But…eating raw foods 100% of the time is not realistic for most of us.

Supplemental Digestive Enzymes should be used with meals.

In order to fully assimilate nutrients and to promote vitality, Digestive Enzymes are one of the best supplements to make part of a healthy lifestyle.

Hire more workers, pay them nothing, and they'll still be happy to do their job!

Benefits of Digestive Enzyme supplements include:

  • Fully assimilate nutrients (for example: taking digestive enzymes with protein is proven to provide the body with significantly more life-building amino acids)
  • Reduce/Elimate…gas, bloating, acid reflux.
  • Support immune system by fully digesting food and not allowing rotten foot particles into bloodstream.
  • Ease the load on your natural enzyme storage.
  • Weight Management
  • Feeling good after meals.

Simply put, using digestive enzymes has been shown to improve quality of life in many different ways.

If you want to lose weight now, but your digestive system is broken, then you need extra help. People who are bloated do not lose fat. In fact, people who are bloated just feel bad about everything. Thats because the most essential process in the body (digestion) is not functioning properly.

Proper digestion is important for you AND your friends.

Gas is bad, if you release stinky bombs, you need digestive enzymes with those meals. Stink bombs mean you literally have rotten, toxic food in your system and your body hates you for it. (Your friends hate you for the stink bombs too).

One capsule with meals is all it takes.

Choose a quality brand, and take the enzyme with meals.

You will feel the difference. You will know the difference. You will LOVE the difference.

The best (and most expensive) digestive enzyme. If you are relatively healthy, you might not need such a powerful product.

Digestive enzymes can help you gain lean muscle, boost the immune system, and most of all IMPROVE Quality of Life.

Thats what I’m talkin’ about, baby!

Eat well.

And…my friends,

Live well.

How the Turkish Get Up changed my Life!

This old time Strongman exercise can take your body to a whole new level of performance.

tilepictureTGUbeach

Unconventional, but the results are real. (DreFitness @ Rio de Janeiro)

In my younger days, I used to think that the Bench Press was the only way to get the body I wanted.

So I benched.

And then I benched some more.

But something funky started happening with my body.

The bench press destroyed my shoulders.

My shoulders ached, my strength flat-lined, and my posture sucked.

I finally realized that the Bench Press was doing more harm than good for me.

The Turkish Get Up is 100% pure functional strength, for an empowered lifestyle.

There are SO MANY benefits from doing the Turkish Get Up — it’s no surprise that this is a highly popular exercise among combat athletes. This is functional strength at its finest.

Here’s the benefits for a regular person like you and me:

  1. Fat loss, metabolism booster
  2. Increased shoulder stability at the joint
  3. FULL-Body Strength: Legs, glutes, core, shoulder, back, triceps, forearm grip strength
  4. One of the best Abdominal/Core exercises in existence
  5. Improved flexibility — especially relieving for tight hips that many Americans chronically suffer from.
  6. Whole body coordination
  7. Lean muscle!!!

The Turkish Get Up changed my life!

My joints, tendons, and ligaments are healthier! Performance has improved, and my physique is getting tighter for summer time.

Finally, the Turkish Get Up is a FUN exercise and gets a lot of priceless looks from other gym-goers.

This simple, full body exercise is Pure Bang-For-the-Buck!

Rehabbing Old Injuries:

Mastering the TGU is well worth the investment of your time and effort. I’ve had a long history of shoulder subluxations/dislocations. I had two surgeries on my right shoulder (1985 & 1987) and one on my left (1989). Unfortunately, even after two surgeries, my right shoulder would continue to dislocate on a regular basis; sometimes while training, many times while sleeping. Talk about a rude awakening!

I was facing the grim option of a third surgery on my right shoulder, contemplating the ‘Law of Diminishing Returns’. Over a 15 year period, I diligently practiced every rubber band exercise and rotator cuff program known in the realm of physical therapy, but to no avail. In December 2001, Pavel taught me the TGU with a dumbbell. Kettlebells weren’t manufactured yet. I practiced this exercise with dumbbells, than later with kettlebells. Kettlebells are without a doubt superior and well worth the investment. Ultimately, I fabricated two 110 pound kettlebells. By Spring of 2002, I was performing singles with either hand, reaching my goal.

By God’s Grace and perfect timing, He placed the right person (Pavel) with the right exercise (TGU), when I needed it the most. Knowing what I know now, I’m thoroughly convinced that I could have avoided all three surgeries had I only known this valuable exercise.

My shoulders are more stable and stronger now than ever before. The range of motion completely restored. Best of all, I have not suffered a shoulder subluxation in years.

This success story has been repeated many times with the clients I train. Boxers, grapplers, NHB fighters, police officers, military personnel, and the average “Joe” or “Jane” have all reaped the benefits of the TGU.

Genetics and Fitness, will we all be Multiracial by 2050?

Imagine a gathering of people, and everybody looks different.

Unique traits that a person inherits can be an advantage, average, or a disadvantage for life.

It’s a bold statement to say that the world is rampant with genetic inequality. It may even be taboo. Unless we choose our parents, we have little room to have an effect genetic on quality.

Mating with a person who has very different genes than you can produce healthier children.

Possibly one of the most important gene regions in all humans is the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC). This is a gene-dense information center that encodes proteins to keep you safe from external invaders as well as internal immunity.

From virus, to disease, and even mental health. Basically, the more diverse MHC you carry, the better health you can be able to achieve.

Making the case for diverse procreation.

Do I even have to work hard? Your sense of smell is what really matters here.

I’m not sure how many women I’ve known who just get ridiculously turned on by the scent of a handsome guy. No cologne or fragrance — just natural masculine smell after a successful day of work. Bypassing her conscious radar, the scent of a guy is LOADED with signals about the quality his Major Histocompatibility Complex.

No surprise, he's a successful model.

Does your man’s scent turn you on like no other? Then he most likely has high testosterone and a strong immune system that is unique from yours.

When people kiss, all of that information is supercharged. Thats when you know if you’re really compatible with somebody…on a genetic if not emotional level as well.

So it’s not about race, nor the color of your skin.

It’s about whats on the inside, literally.

The Price Women Pay for Sexy

Why do so many young women seek out Supplements for Aching Joints?

Fit and elegant in appearance, she stood near me with a smile on her face. You know, customer service is really fun when the customer is already warmed up.

Glucosamine Sulfate. A common supplement to support joint health, and she’s buying it. Even though she wore regular fitness clothes, I perceive that she uses heels often. She gets excited, “I’m in heels all day! I’m a model. They put me in stilettos so I can be closer in height to the tall girls.”

That’s the price you pay for sexy.

“hahaha, If you say so.”

Attractive woman, I really want to take off your...heels.


With her, the rest is history. But for young women everywhere, behavior involving the regular use of High Heels can be seriously degrading for joint health.

As much as I enjoy the aesthetic “lift” that women attain from heels, I worry for the women who feel obligated to wear heels to work every day. The attractive saleswoman at Macy’s wore heels when she helped me with shoes. The waitress in the restaurant wore heels. Their bodies ache, but they do it anyway. And they do it to look better for me. So I feel partly responsible.

Heels may enhance a feminine appearance, but user beware.

  1. Higher pressures on feet, with the big toe particularly at risk for deformation.
  2. Ankle tilt creates unfavorable mechanical action at the joint.
  3. Length, strength ratio of leg muscles can be chronically compromised — causing knee damage.
  4. Quadriceps lengthen while hamstrings shorten — ultimately leading to hip, spine, and back dysfunction.

Use heels sparingly.

But do continue to use heels, it will be easier to find you when I’m driving a $200,000 car.
